Monika is a digital avatar from Kamoto.AI, a Delhi-based startup, offering companionship as an AI girlfriend. This innovative concept allows users like Rishi, an introvert, to enhance their social and dating skills through interactions with AI characters. Kamoto.AI also launched an avatar of celebrity Sunny Leone for fan interactions, signaling a new era in fan-celebrity engagement. While the concept is gaining traction, concerns about creating unrealistic expectations in relationships are noted. Additionally, the use of AI in romantic contexts is expanding, with people using AI to craft dating profiles or write love letters. Despite the potential for misuse, stringent measures are in place to ensure conversations remain respectful. Beyond romance, AI companions offer a judgment-free space for sharing thoughts, with platforms like vvibe facilitating connections based on interests. However, some caution against over-reliance on these digital entities, emphasizing the value of human flaws and diversity in perspectives.
